Flail mowers for the Kubota L2501
The L2501 has 24.8 gross engine hp and either 19 or 20.5 PTO hp. In this catalog, all three Farmry LFS widths need the maker to clarify its horsepower basis; the TMG-TFM60’s 30 hp minimum is above both L2501 power ratings. Start with that elimination before comparing width.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Kubota L3302
The L3302’s 33 gross engine hp can make a “30 hp” mower sound straightforward. Its actual PTO output is 26.1 or 28 hp. Because the researched TMG and Farmry mower ranges do not consistently state their power basis, this tractor needs clarification before a width-based recommendation.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the KIOTI CK4020
The CK4020 has 39.6 gross engine hp and either 34.8 or 33.3 PTO hp. That creates an unusual Farmry LFS question: PTO power falls within its advertised 15–35 hp range while engine power exceeds it. Until the maker states the basis, the answer stays unresolved.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Kubota BX2680
The BX2680 has two published power sets, but neither supports the TMG-TFM60’s 30 hp minimum. The useful next step is to resolve Farmry’s horsepower basis, then compare LFS cutting width with the actual tire track and the BX’s unchanged 680 lb at-24-inch hitch figure.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Kubota B2301
For the B2301HSD, mower width is a useful decision after the power basis is resolved. The nominal 45.3-inch minimum-tread tractor width equals the LFS45 cutting width, while 17.4 PTO hp limits how much extra width should be assumed to work in demanding material.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the KIOTI CK3520
The base CK3520 manual has 30.9 PTO hp; CK3520H has 28.9. Both share a 34.9 gross-engine-hp rating. That makes the TMG-TFM60’s unlabeled 30–60 HP range a different question for each transmission: an engine-based minimum includes both, while a PTO-based minimum excludes HST. Keep the exact base-model configuration in the inquiry.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Kubota L3902
On the L3902, an unclear mower horsepower basis can reverse an upper-limit decision: 37.5 gross engine hp is above the LFS family’s 35 hp maximum, while 32.1 gear and 30.3 HST PTO hp are within it. After resolving that basis, compare the actual swath with your tire setup.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Kubota L4802
A stronger tractor can exceed a small mower’s upper limit. The standard 4WD L4802’s 48.4 gross engine hp and 40.5 gear / 39.0 HST PTO hp all exceed the Farmry LFS family’s 35 hp ceiling. The useful next comparisons are the basis-dependent LFP47 range and the wider TMG choices, with their unresolved specifications kept visible.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the John Deere 1025R
The researched U.S. 1025R is rated at 24 engine hp and 18 PTO hp with a Limited Category 1 hitch. That puts it below the LFP47’s 25 hp minimum under either horsepower interpretation. WoodMaxx’s FM-54 · Y-blades includes 18 in its documented PTO band, but the hammer option does not; weight discrepancies and limited-hitch geometry still need resolution.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Kubota B2601
For the documented B2601HSD, the blade configuration changes the FM-54 power result. The current Kubota catalog lists 19.4 PTO hp; the older linked sheet lists 19.5. Both are inside the FM-54 Y-blade range, and both are below its hammer-blade minimum. Resolve the tractor’s exact rating, but do not round either number up to 20.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the KIOTI DK4520
For the DK4520, the useful WoodMaxx comparison is the actual 55- versus 70-inch cutting swath, not the 62H/78H model number. Both hammer configurations include 38.9 PTO hp in their published ranges, but the wider machine adds weight and both need rear hydraulic connections that are optional on this standard tractor.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the KIOTI DK5020
DK5020 is a 50.3 engine-hp tractor with 41.5 PTO hp. That difference matters at the upper end: WoodMaxx FM62H’s 45 PTO-hp maximum and TMG’s 50 PTO-hp manual ceiling are both above the actual PTO rating. A generic tractor-hp label, however, still needs its basis resolved.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the KIOTI DK5320SEH
The DK5320SEH’s 39.3 PTO hp falls within the retained WoodMaxx hammer-mower ranges. The purchase question shifts to the rear hydraulic circuit and complete implement load: a standard single valve with two ports is not proof of two independent remotes, and the current KIOTI page contains conflicting hitch-lift numbers.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Kubota L2502
For the L2502, the source revision can change an FM-54 hammer-blade decision. Current published gear output is 19.8 PTO hp; the older linked sheet says 20.5. Those figures fall on opposite sides of the hammer version’s 20 PTO-hp minimum. The Y-blade range includes both, so verify the tractor rating before choosing the rotor configuration.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Kubota L4470 Premium
The L4470 Premium’s 36.2 PTO hp lies within both researched WoodMaxx fixed hammer-mower ranges. The useful decision is whether you need a 55- or 70-inch cut and whether moving that cut sideways justifies a hydraulic version. Start with the actual mowing path and the rear valves installed on this tractor, rather than assuming a Premium or cab label includes the required circuit.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Kubota L6070 Premium
The L6070 Premium’s 53 PTO hp exceeds the FM-62 hammer family’s 45 hp ceiling and TMG’s retained 50 PTO-hp manual limit. The FM-78 hammer models publish 30–65 PTO hp, so the useful next decision is a fixed 70-inch cut versus powered side shift, with different load and hydraulic requirements.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the John Deere 3038E
At 30 PTO hp the 3038E is exactly at the FM-78 hammer family’s minimum, while the FM-62 hammer family starts at 24. Both widths therefore pass only an initial power comparison. Cutting load, complete mower weight, optional rear SCVs and WoodMaxx’s explicit iMatch exclusion decide what still needs checking.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the John Deere 2025R
On the researched North America RS000001-onward 2025R, 18.2 estimated PTO hp includes the FM-54 Y-blade configuration but remains below its hammer alternative and the larger FM-62 hammer minimum. The manual’s 49-inch R4-tire width also makes a 47-inch actual cut a coverage question before purchase.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the John Deere 2032R
The 2032R’s 24.2/25 PTO-hp source discrepancy does not reverse every mower decision. Both values are inside FM-54 Y-blade’s 15–25 range and just above FM-62 hammer’s 24 hp minimum, while neither reaches FM-78 hammer’s 30 hp minimum. The useful comparison is narrow Y-blade mowing versus a wider, heavier hammer mower with very little arithmetic margin above its minimum.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Kubota LX3520
The LX3520HSD sits between two WoodMaxx mower boundaries: 28.7 PTO hp exceeds FM-54 Y-blade’s 25 hp maximum but is below FM-78 hammer’s 30 hp minimum. FM-62 hammer’s 55-inch cut falls in the middle, with fixed and hydraulic-offset versions that require different equipment and load checks.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the John Deere 2038R
Both published 2038R PTO figures meet FM-78 hammer’s 30 hp minimum, but only at the threshold or 0.4 hp above it. The linked brochure gives the same 1,356 lb at-24-inch hitch rating as 2032R, so a wider power-eligible mower still needs a separate carrying and cutting-load review.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Massey Ferguson GC1723E
On the brochure-generation GC1723E, a mower decision can remain useful without pretending that its tire width or operator-manual implement limit is known. Compare the documented cut and shaft-inclusive mass of the fixed LFS mowers, then keep the FM-54 Y-blade configuration separate from its higher-minimum hammer version.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the TYM T25
The T25’s mower decision has two gates: 18.3 PTO hp and the width of the actual tractor. TYM’s current brochure says 50 inches overall; its older North American manual says 52.8. A 53.1-inch mower therefore has a very different nominal width surplus depending on which document applies, while a wider 55-inch FM-62 Y still misses the tractor’s PTO power.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the mechanical TYM T394
The mechanical ROPS T394’s 30.2 PTO hp puts the fixed FM-62 and FM-78 into different practical comparisons. The 55-inch FM-62 is only 1.5 inches wider in total than the tractor’s published 53.5-inch width. FM-78 adds 15 inches of cut, but its 30-hp minimum is just 0.2 below the tractor rating—and its Y version does not have a lower minimum than hammers.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the mechanical Massey Ferguson 1825E
The mechanical 1825E’s 20.4 PTO hp clears the FM-62 Y minimum by just 0.4 hp, while the same tractor family’s 19.2-hp HST entry does not. The 55-inch Y mower therefore creates a transmission-specific choice. Its hammer version starts at 24, and the family’s 52.4-inch minimum width still cannot establish actual tire coverage.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the HST Massey Ferguson 1835E
At 27.6 PTO hp, the 1835E HST sits above FM-54 Y’s 25-hp maximum and below FM-78’s 30-hp minimum. The useful hammer-mower comparison is therefore the 55-inch fixed FM-62 versus 55-inch hydraulic FM-62H: they share a 24–45 PTO band, but the H version adds different rear-valve, placement and load questions.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the New Holland WORKMASTER 25S
The 25S combines 17.2 PTO hp with a rear width near 47 inches. That makes a 47-inch FM-54 Y a close width match on paper, while a wider LFS53 changes both the deck position and the load. The 25S falls below the 55-inch FM-62 Y’s 20-PTO-hp minimum.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the gear New Holland WORKMASTER 35
The gear WORKMASTER 35 has two unresolved source questions that matter together: 29.7 versus 27.4 PTO hp, and 66.5 versus 54 inches of width. A 55-inch FM-62 remains inside its power band under either rating, but whether it reaches beyond the tires changes with the actual tractor width. A 70-inch FM-78 still starts above both PTO figures.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the LS MT125
The MT125 manual sets a maximum 60-inch flail cutting width. That rules out the 61-inch LFS61 on the documented configuration before the generic horsepower band can be treated as encouraging. The useful comparison is among narrower decks whose blade, power and complete-load evidence still need checking.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the LS MT225S
The MT225S sits between a 47-inch mower that clears its power range and a 55-inch Y mower whose 20-PTO-hp minimum exceeds the tractor’s 19.3. Its brochure width is 48.7 inches with R1 tires, and the manual caps flail cut at 60 inches. Wider coverage therefore needs more than a rounded horsepower label.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the John Deere 3025E
On the current 19.4-PTO-hp 3025E specification, a 47-inch FM-54 with Y-blades clears its published power range. Its hammer alternative and the 55-inch FM-62 Y configuration start at 20 PTO hp. A similar-looking rotor or a bigger tractor frame cannot close that gap.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the John Deere 3032E
At 25 PTO hp, the 3032E reaches the FM-54 Y mower’s upper limit and clears the 24-hp minimum for both FM-62 hammer versions. The useful next comparison is fixed versus hydraulic positioning, followed by complete weight and quick-hitch fit—not simply the next model number.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Kubota LX2620 HSD ROPS
The LX2620HSD ROPS combines a 53.7-inch nominal tractor width with only 19.4 PTO hp in the current catalog. That creates a width-and-power tradeoff: the FM-54 Y-blade mower clears the power range but cuts 47 inches, while the 55-inch FM-62 Y-blade mower needs at least 20 PTO hp. The older 19.5-PTO-hp sheet does not close that gap.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEFlail mowers for the Kubota BX2380
On the BX2380, a mower that is slightly wider than the tractor can still leave a tire track outside the cut because its cutting position is asymmetric. Compare the LFS diagrams with the actual tractor, then review complete operating load against the 680 lb lift reference at 24 inches. The documented tractor has 17.7 PTO hp; its 21.6 engine hp cannot clear a PTO-specific 20-hp minimum.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEJohn Deere 3033R flail mowers: the 24.3-PTO-hp hammer decision
For the U.S. 1368LV open-station eHydro scope, 24.3 PTO hp is only 0.3 above the FM62 hammer minimum. The same 55-inch FM62 with Y-blades has a lower 20-hp minimum, while FM78 starts at 30. The 3R hitch’s larger lift reference does not widen those power bands.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEJohn Deere 3039R flail mowers: FM78 margin and the FM25 horsepower question
The U.S. 1381LV open-station eHydro scope has 31.1 PTO hp. It clears FM78’s 30-hp minimum by 1.1, while FM62 hammer has 7.1 hp above its minimum. Land Pride FM2560 creates a different decision: its 33-hp requirement does not identify engine or PTO power, and the 3039R falls on opposite sides of 33 depending on that basis.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEJohn Deere 3046R flail mowers: 60-inch fixed offset or 70-inch side shift?
The 3046R’s disputed PTO figures do not change every mower decision. Both the U.S. book’s 34.1 and the linked brochure’s 36.6 clear FM78’s 30-PTO-hp minimum and exceed FM2560’s 33-hp minimum numerically. Width, fixed versus hydraulic offset, complete hammer-machine weight and installed rear valves become the useful next questions.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEJohn Deere 4044M flail mowers: power basis and loader-dependent hydraulics
This guide uses the current-linked brochure’s explicitly labeled 33.6-PTO-hp hydro configuration. The U.S. order book and older manual also publish 32.5 without naming the transmission. That unresolved difference matters at FM2560’s 33-hp threshold; FM2572 raises a separate engine-versus-PTO question. A hydraulic-offset mower also needs the 4044M’s exact loader and valve arrangement checked.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEJohn Deere 4052M flail mowers: keep the 55-inch option, check the 72-inch threshold
The standard 4052M brochure gives 41.2 PTO hp for hydro, while the book and older manual give an unqualified 39.9. Both fit the FM62 hammer’s 24–45 PTO-hp band, despite the tractor’s 51-hp engine label. Moving to FM2572 or FM2584 creates a different question: Land Pride does not identify whether its requirement means engine or PTO power.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEJohn Deere 4066M flail mowers: exclude the 45-PTO-hp models before choosing width
For the standard 4066M hydro profile, the brochure’s 57 PTO hp and the book/manual’s unqualified 52 both exceed the FM62 family’s 45-PTO-hp maximum. The FM78’s 30–65 band remains numerically available, and both PTO references exceed FM2584’s 49 minimum. The remaining choice is about 70 versus 84 inches, blade configuration, reach and complete load—not a presumption that more tractor power approves every smaller mower.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEKubota MX5400 flail mowers: check power ceilings and mower size
The MX5400 HST’s 46.5 PTO hp is too high for FM62’s 45-hp maximum, even though its 55-inch cut is modest. Compare 60-, 70- and 72-inch choices against Kubota’s separate 72-inch cutting-width and 1,100-lb flail limits before deciding how much mower to buy.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEKubota MX6000 flail mowers: more power still stops at a 72-inch cut
The MX6000 HST has enough numerical power for several wider flails, but Kubota’s reviewed manual keeps the limit at a 72-inch cut and 1,100 lb. That makes the choice between a fixed or hydraulically shifted 70-inch FM78 and a 72-inch FM2572 more useful than assuming an 84-inch mower is the next step.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEMahindra 1626 flail mowers: Y-blades and light-duty options under 22 PTO hp
A 1626 has room for light flails, not hammer-rotor classes. FM-54 Y and the Farmry LFS series stay inside their ranges on either transmission. FM-62 Y needs the Shuttle’s 21.5 PTO hp. FH-EFGC125’s 22-hp minimum is unresolved because its page and manual use different horsepower bases.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEMahindra 1635 flail mowers: too strong for FM-54, short of the 30-hp class
A 1635 has outgrown the 25-hp flails and not yet reached the 30-hp class. Its 26.0 or 27.6 PTO hp exceeds FM-54’s 25-hp maximum, falls short of FM-78’s 30-hp minimum, and lands inside the 55–60-inch hammer and Y options. Several mowers do not say whether they mean engine or PTO horsepower, and on this tractor that choice changes the answer.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEMahindra 1640 flail mowers: 0.1 hp short of the 30-hp class
The 1640 Shuttle’s 29.9 PTO hp falls 0.1 hp short of the 30-PTO-hp minimum on WoodMaxx’s FM-78 family, and the HST is 2.3 short. Below that line the shortlist is broad: the 55–60-inch hammer class starts at 24–25 hp, and both transmissions exceed FM-54 Y’s 25-hp maximum. Mowers that do not say engine or PTO are where the 1640’s answer changes.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDEMahindra 4540 flail mowers: 31 PTO hp opens the 70-inch class by one horsepower
At 31 PTO hp, the 4540 4WD clears the 30-hp minimum of WoodMaxx’s 70-inch FM-78 family by 1.0 hp, and its 3,527-lb lift at 24 inches is well above those mowers’ retained weights. Land Pride’s FM2560 depends on whether its 33-hp minimum means engine or PTO power, and FM2572’s 42-hp minimum is out of reach either way.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDELS MT342 flail mowers: the 35-hp ceiling and the 42-hp floor
The MT342 sits on the boundary of two mower classes. Farmry’s LFS mowers stop at 35 hp, and the gear tractor’s brochure figure of 35.7 PTO hp exceeds that on both engine and PTO power. Land Pride FM2572 starts at 42 hp, exactly the MT342’s gross engine figure. Between them, WoodMaxx’s 70-inch FM-78 and Land Pride’s FM2560 are inside their ranges on any reading.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDELS MT352 flail mowers: Category 2 mowers, and a 0.4-hp question on FM2572
On a Category 2 MT352 the flail shortlist is WoodMaxx’s 70-inch FM-78 family and Land Pride’s FM2572 and FM2584. FM-78 is inside its 30–65-PTO-hp range by more than 11 hp. The Land Pride models depend on the horsepower basis: 52 engine hp clears both minimums, while the PTO figures miss FM2584’s 49 and, for the HST’s 41.6, miss FM2572’s 42 by 0.4.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDETYM T474 flail mowers: over the 35-hp line, and a 54.5-inch tractor
At 35.9 PTO hp and 48.3 engine hp, the T474 is above the 35-hp ceiling of Farmry’s LFS mowers on both readings. WoodMaxx’s FM-62 and FM-78 families are inside their PTO ranges, and Land Pride’s FM2572 depends on what its 42-hp minimum means. The T474 is also narrow, at 54.5 inches overall, so even a 55-inch mower can cover its wheels.
Read the guide →FIELD GUIDETYM T574 flail mowers: FM-62 at its ceiling, FM2584 on engine power
The T574’s 44.7 PTO hp is 0.3 under the 45-hp ceiling of WoodMaxx’s 55-inch FM-62, and its 55 engine hp clears Land Pride’s 84-inch FM2584 only if Land Pride means engine power. WoodMaxx’s 70-inch FM-78 family and Farmry’s 87-inch HFS87 are inside their ranges on any reading, 14.7 PTO hp above each 30-hp minimum.

The L4270 Deluxe lists 42 engine hp and 32.5 PTO hp, and three mower ranges fall between those figures. Land Pride FM2572 (42 hp) and FM2560 (33 hp) are met on engine power and missed on PTO power. Farmry’s LFS range (15–35 hp) is the reverse. None of those makers says which figure it means, so on this tractor the basis decides the answer.

On engine power, the L5070 Premium clears Land Pride FM2584’s 49-hp minimum by 1.0 and FM2572’s 42-hp minimum by 8. On PTO power it misses both. WoodMaxx’s 70-inch FM-78 and FM-78H are the 6-foot mowers inside their published range on any reading, by 9.8 PTO hp, and the H version can use one of the tractor’s optional rear remotes for side shift.

Kubota’s TC860-1971-9 manual sets a 72-inch, 1,100-lb maximum for flail mowers on the MX4900. That removes Land Pride’s 84-inch FM2584 regardless of power and leaves the 72-inch FM2572 exactly at the width limit. WoodMaxx’s 70-inch FM-78 family and Farmer-Helper’s 60-inch FH-EFGC155 are inside both manual limits and their PTO ranges.

The L3970 Premium’s 30.9 PTO hp clears the 30-hp minimum of WoodMaxx’s 70-inch FM-78 family by 0.9. Its two power figures split the mowers rated without a basis: Farmry’s LFS range (15–35 hp) includes 30.9 PTO hp but not 39 engine hp, and Land Pride FM2560 (33 hp) is the reverse. The L3770 Deluxe, on the same frame at 28 PTO hp, misses FM-78 by 2.
